Richter’s rational mind posited several ideas to try and make sense of the man in front of him. To find some reason for why this person could be so hateful and damaged. Then the strongest part of Richter took control, and he realized that none of that mattered. It was the part of him that didn’t shy from difficult truths and didn’t complain when there was something hard to be done. The truth was that the label “monster” didn’t matter. The truth was that this man was a threat to the village. The truth was, Lieb wouldn’t live to see another sunrise.
